[h3][i][b]~Personal Information~[/b][/i][/h3] [b]Personality:[/b] Kiran tends to be quiet, but thoughtful when she's in school, or by herself. She enjoys thinking and picking up small bits of information here and there. She sometimes gets sidetracked with researching a random topic that comes up. She has a short attention span when it comes to things she doesn't find truly enthralling. Her curiosity usually gets the best of her. She'll take high risks to gain the knowledge she desires. However, when she's around people, she's up beat and friendly. She's head strong and cares about the people around her, whether she knows them or not. She'll go out of her way to make others feel welcome. Kiran will usually try to break awkward silences, and frequently makes a fool of herself while doing so. In the end, though, she just wants people to open up to her. Kiran usually has little enemies, and put others before herself. She can find someone good in everything, and appreciates the little things in life. She gets along very well with Apollo. Her relationship with her father is better than most demigods. He calls her Devika, which means "little goddess" in Hindu. Usually she down plays being the favorite child, claiming that she's just really pushy when it comes to visiting him. However, she's very hard on herself and is always trying to make herself better, by pushing herself beyond her boundaries. She very rarely cares about her own health, occasionally causing harm to herself. [b]Skills:[/b] Kiran is an extremely good musician. She can play a multitude of instruments, and has a sweet melodic alto voice. And while she's absolutely terrible at archery (much to her dismay), she is an expert at double wielding. Her skills in healing are average by normal Apollo cabin standards, but in the real world they seem rather exceptional. Kiran has the ability to use photokinesis. She can create illusions/hallucinations, create light shields/force field, project healing energies, blast of lights to impale or blind enemies for some time or maybe forever, and create a ball or shape of light to blast. [b]Biography:[/b] Kiran's mother was an immigrant to America. She was raised in India, where the rest of her family lived. However, Kiran's mother was invited to attend a college at the New York Institute of Technology where she decided that she wanted to learn the cultures of the US and fit in. So she went to a college party, got drunk, and ended up sleeping with Apollo, who was in disguise. After learning she was pregnant, Kiran's mother was ashamed, because it went against her culture and belief. However, she refused to get an abortion because that was also against her belief. So when the child was born she was named Kiran, meaning "Ray of light". Kiran's mother never knew who Kiran's father was. Kiran's mother constantly exposed Kiran to Indian culture. So, through rigorous home teachings, Kiran has learned Hindu. As Kiran grew up, her mother wanted her to become a doctor. So Kiran, tried her best in school, however, due to her dyslexia and ADHD she had trouble focusing in school. She always hung out with the smart students in her grade, and tried her best to appear smart. She lived with high expectations constantly on her shoulders. Eventually, as classes got harder, Kiran's grades dropped. Furious, her mother started punishing her more and more severely. It started off with taking away luxuries such as internet, and her phone, but eventually it lead to even more. Soon, her meals were taken away and she was constantly sleep deprived from how long her mother would force her to stay up in order to study. However, Kiran's grades were barely improving. It got to the point where her mother would beat her for her grades. While it didn't particularly hurt very bad because her mother didn't have much strength, it was still emotionally scarring. After awhile, Kiran's friends and teachers at school noticed. Soon the school called social services and Kiran was taken away from her home. At a foster home, a satyr found her and brought her to camp. Kiran's was thrilled to have people she could consider family. She lives at Camp Half-Blood, but is sometimes forced to see her mother who is trying to regain custody of Kiran.
